There are two separate bugs here: earlier versions of the package have broken altivec detection that leaves the package unusable on some procs, later versions have no altivec detection at all.

I've just uploaded an NMU of libvisual to the DELAYED/2-day queue on gluck, which works around the issue of the altivec detection causing gstreamer to segv on some powerpc machines without altivec.

Previously I reported that my BlueWhite G3 Powermac didn't get the wigglies. Apparently that was a lie. I recently re-installed this machine and there there were!

I installed on my beige G3 PowerMac (OldWorld) test machine.

When it came to running tasksel I chose the desktop and standard tasks. It installed everything pretty much as expected except that it wound up in a red screen saying: [!!] Configure gnome-applets Installation step failed An installation step failed. The failing step is: Select and install software. I continued anyway and allowed it to reboot, which went pretty much as expected. After the reboot, I tried to log into Gnome. It behaved as described in bug#404876 (popup telling of a problem loading OAFID:GNOME_MixerApplet, and the screen went all wiggly.) I then followed Sjoerd's instructions for testing. 0: Install gstreamer no problem. 1: rm ~/.gstreamer-0.10/registry.*.xml That directory didn't exist. So there was nothing to remove. gst-launch-0.10 --gst-disable-registry-fork crashed with illegal instruction 2b: installed the kernel from SID. gst-launch... still gave illegal instruction downloaded and installed libvisual-0.4-0_0.4.0-1.0.1_powerpc.deb from sjoerd's directory. got ERROR: pipeline could not be constructed: empty pipeline not allowed. I assume this is the right answer? Then I logged out and logged back in again to Gnome. No more wiggles. So that fixes the problem, whatever it was. Congratulations!

Bug#404876: (no subject)
Allright, I finished my iBook logic board upgrade, the laptop is now in one piece for testing (as compared to all over the place when I wrote this morning). So I compiled a vanilla 2.6.19.2 with make-kpkg and reverted libvisual to the official debian package. I have not been able to reproduce this bug with this kernel. Should we reassign this bug to linux-source ? Anyway, thanks for the help and keep up the great work, if I can help, let me know. -- Jonathan Bastien-Filiatrault, [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#404876: G3 (or other non-altivec machines) testers sought
Hi, Gstreamer currently has a release critical bug that seems to be only reproducable on powerpc machines without altivec support and even then not always. The best hint to what the problem might be seems to indicate there is an issue in the libvisual altivec detection code[0].. Also for some reporters the problem went away (!?). Google revealed that pld-linux re-enabled the altivec detection because it works ``on fixed kernel''. So it might be related to specific kernel versions. So what i would like people to do (Only on machine without altivec!): 0: Install gstreamer 0.10 (at least gstreamer0.10-plugins-base and gstreamer0.10-tools from etch) 1: Run: rm ~/.gstreamer-0.10/registry.*.xml gst-launch-0.10 --gst-disable-registry-fork 2a: If it doesn't crash: - please try on an older kernel if possible 2b: If it does crash: - please try on a newer (debian) kernel if possible - if that doesn't help try the libvisual packages at: http://people.debian.org/~sjoerd/libvisual/ 3: Thanks for testing!
